Pilate Seeks Jesus’ Release
13 Now Pilate summoned to himself the chief priests, the [a](A)rulers, and the people, 14 and he said to them, “You brought this man to me on the ground that (B)he is inciting the people to revolt; and behold, after examining Him before you, I (C)have found no basis at all in the case of this man for the charges which you are bringing against Him. 15 No, nor has (D)Herod, for he sent Him back to us; and behold, nothing deserving death has been done by Him. 16 Therefore I will [b](E)punish Him and release Him.”

Jesus is Sentenced to Death(A)
13 Then Pilate called the high priests, the other[a] leaders, and the people together 14 and told them, “You brought this man to me as one who turns the people against the government. And here in your presence I have examined him and have found him ‘Not Guilty’ of the charges you make against him. 15 Neither does Herod, because he sent him back to us! Indeed, this man[b] has done nothing to deserve death. 16 So I will punish him and let him go.”
